How wide of a tire can you fit front/back? (As measured, not what the label says)

Trek 620
How about a Trek 620 touring bike that is also 58 cm. I have (somewhere) I 520, 620, and 720.
I'd be willing to let the 620 go.
thank you

Fuji Fan
I had one of those once. It was a nice bike, but I sold it when I got an Opus. Looking back, I think I liked the Team more than the Opus, which I did not end up keeping.

Hmmm, interesting. Care to elaborate? Handling? Comfort? That certain je nais se quoi? Or as the Fuji product guys would've said: nan to ka?
The Team certainly was a dialed-in rider, at an attractive price point, that looked like it should've been priced higher.

Gotcha. I was actually drifting the thread a bit asking beech333 why he preferred the Team to the Opus III, but you're certainly not lacking in nice fast/performance bikes.

Probably the fastest performance bike I own is an 83 Univega Super Strada. It is fast but a little less comfortable than the others

This is good news. I'm picking up this exact '84 Team Fuji from a guy today. Looking forward to riding it.

620 not quite up to snuff
I have to show a little love to this 620. It is not quite the condition of the Team. 
at least the Phil's are still perfect.

Trek Tri
I'm surprised no one mentioned the minty Trek Tri behind the touring bike. No love there..... Oh well. I have yet to ride that bike.
I'm with the OP, I'm looking forward to getting a 60 cm Miami Vice Ironman Expert on the road this fall! Love those bikes.
